Welcome
We are experienced community midwives practising within Southend-on-Sea, Leigh-on-Sea, Westciff, Benfleet, Rochford, Rayleigh and Shoeburyness Essex. We became interested in Hypnobirthing after facilitating births where women and their partners were using Hypnobirthing. The difference in their birthing experiences was amazing.
We then trained to be Hypnobirthing practitioners as we are passionate about natural childbirth and wanted to give women and their birthing partners the tools they needed to have a calm and gentle positive birth experience.
We were trained as Hypnobirthing practitioners by Katherine Graves, the leading authority and specialist on Hypnobirthing in the UK. We are members of the Hypnobirthing Association, the organisation set up to provide a professional body for Hypnobirthing teachers and we have a diploma in Hypnobirthing.
Hypnobirthing techniques work effectively with home births, water births and hospital births. It is your choice where you decide to give birth. More and more women are wanting a natural birth without drugs - Hypnobirthing is increasing in popularity.
A midwife is a recognised and an accountable professional who works in partnership with women to give necessary support and advice during pregnancy, childbirth and the postnatal period. We believe that because we have professional in depth knowledge of pregnancy and childbirth midwives are the most appropriate practitioners to teach Hypnobirthing.
In our experience of teaching Hypnobirthing, couples have told us that the most important thing to them when choosing a Hypnobirthing course was that they were taught the techniques by someone who is a professional, experienced midwife.
